Burning Hearts

Stay here
Wait
Let the black spiders crawl
You see them all
Population under control

Seconds turn into hours
Smoldering on your own
You're so alone, so alone

Though your heart aches, you're moving slowly
Hoping time waits for the lonely
Why are you sitting on your own
Crying all alone?

Burning hearts grow cold
Broken hearts, they will grow cold
In your bones, fortune's told
Burning hearts, they all grow cold

You're sitting still while you wait
Be good, do what you're told
Look the other way
Dip your toe, get cold
Entertain yourself
It's all that you've ever known
Sitting there all alone

Though your heart aches, you're moving slowly
Hoping time waits for the lonely
I'm wondering why
Are you sitting on your own?
Tell me why
Are you crying all alone?

Burning hearts grow cold
Broken hearts, they will grow cold
In your bones, fortune's told
Burning hearts, they all grow cold

Sifting through the charcoal ruins in your ribs
Beginning something uneasy and primitive
A little nudge, you're falling
(Falling, falling)
Your heart is spinning round and round

Burning hearts grow cold
Broken hearts, they will grow cold
In your bones, fortune's told
Burning hearts, they all grow cold
